Economical dockage on beautiful Broad Creek and the amenities of Oriental, North Carolina minutes away.

Quiet and secluded, the Boonedocks is a scenic backwater delight. Dockage is offered by day, week, month, or year. Transients are welcome as space allows.
Just minutes off the ICW, Boonedocks offers a relaxing deepwater respite from the rigors of yacht transit. Local boaters find Boonedocks' location a refreshing contrast to the busier Oriental area and environs, and just a short ride to the open reaches of the Neuse River and Pamlico Sound. Boaters from afar leaving their boats in our care find comfort in 24-hour security and the dockcams that will allow them to view their boat at will no matter what their location.

The Boonedocks is a sensible alternative to Oriental proper and close enough to carry an Oriental address. Only minutes away by land or water, Oriental offers all the amenities, facilities, and recreation a cruiser or day sailor needs.

Each Boonedocks pier can accommodate a catamaran and nine other sail or power boats. Docks feature 5- to 6-foot depths, 24-hour security, and 30-amp service. Please call for rates.

The Boonedocks' guest cabin is available for short-term (up to two weeks) and weekend rentals. Just email the innkeeper@boonedocksmarina.com or phone 252-249-3625.
If you're not sailing, what else is there to do? Oriental and Pamlico County have a lot to offer visitors, whether you arrive by land or water.

If your Scouting group is passing through the Pamlico County area by canoe, kayak, or car this summer, please accept our invitation to stay the night at the Boonedocks free of charge. We're on Broad Creek, just off the Neuse River, and at the junction of a number of great paddling trails. We can accommodate as many as eight tents, and you are free to use the shower house. We might even make you some pancakes to get
you going the next morning with a minimum of fuss. Contact us for more information - we'll even be happy to send you a packet of trip-planning aids, if you'd like (or for as long as our supply holds out). In the BSA world, you'll find we're a 20-minute drive from Pamlico Seabase and the Bonner Scout Reservation and just a bit farther from Camps Bower and Tuscarora. We're near the Crystal Coast, maritime museums, an estuarium(!), and, of course, Pamlico Sound and the Neuse. With dozens of things to do, trails to paddle, and sights to see, our location is a perfect starting, stopover, or end point to a memorable trip, and it would be our pleasure to host your group.
